Strawberry
The Strawberry snowpack is located in the Uinta Mountains of northeastern Utah, with an average elevation of 9,000 feet. This region experiences an average annual snowfall of 350 inches, with an average peak snowpack of 65 inches in late March. Nearby ski resorts that rely on this snowpack include Park City Mountain Resort and Deer Valley Resort. Climate trends in this region show an overall decrease in snowpack over the past several decades, likely due to rising temperatures and decreased precipitation. The Strawberry snowpack is a critical source of water for downstream rivers, creeks, and reservoirs, including the Strawberry Reservoir, which supplies drinking water to the Wasatch Front. As such, monitoring snowpack levels and hydrology constituents is crucial for managing water resources in this region.

Mountain & avalanche safety
- Know before you go
- Check today's avalanche bulletin from the regional avalanche center before any backcountry / side-country travel. Conditions can shift dramatically between morning and afternoon on storm days.
- Carry the gear, know how to use it
- Beacon, shovel, probe. Practice companion rescue on a calm day, not during a real burial.
- Mind the weather window
- Heavy snow + wind builds wind slabs at ridgelines. The day after a storm is often the riskiest in the backcountry.
- Read the snowpack
- A weak, faceted, or wind-loaded snowpack — like the depth and trend shown above — is exactly what feeds slab avalanches. Dig a pit or check the bulletin before committing to steep terrain.

About Strawberry
Where does the snow data for Strawberry come from?
Snowpack depth, SWE, snowfall, and air temperature come from the NRCS SNOTEL station 794. Forecast comes from the NOAA / yr.no feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
NRCS SNOTEL stations report continuously (typically hourly). Snoflo refreshes throughout the day; check the "as of" timestamp on the snowpack hero card.
What's the difference between snowpack depth and SWE?
Snowpack depth measures how tall the snow is. SWE (snow water equivalent) measures how much WATER is in that snow. SWE matters more for hydrology and ski-season prediction since dry powder packs less water than wet/spring snow at the same depth.
How is "% of normal" calculated?
Today's snowpack is compared to the historical average snowpack on this calendar day across the station's full record. 100% = right on average; 130% = a big year; 60% = a thin year.
Can I get alerts when fresh snow hits?
Yes -- snow alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this station, set a snowfall threshold (e.g. "alert me when 6+ inches"), and you'll get a push the moment NRCS reports the crossing.
